Hello and a Happy Mother's Day to all!! I hope everyone is having a great Mother's Day, and can find a way to connect. I was able to Zoom my mom, along with my brother, sister and all our kids.
I've got a photo heavy post, as I had a super crafty week...now I know why I am getting nothing done, because I've had so much fun with my cards this week.

Ink to Paper Melissa's Fab Friday: Happy Mother's Day
Retro Rubber #134: Spring Flowers (stamps are PTI Brushed Blooms...4 years old (probably))
CAS on Friday #179: Favorite Flower
Addicted to Stamps and More #388: Holiday
To create my next 2 cards, I stenciled a panel with Memory Box Modern Flower Power stencil, then cut the panel in half to make 2 cards. Now, I have a bit of a head start for next year.

Outside the Box #61: May Flowers (Modern Flower Power stencil)
Addicted to CAS #358: Flower
Here is the card I made with the other half of my stenciled panel.

The next batch of cards happened when I pulled out Drink Glasses Dies and Wine Samplers Stamps from Paper Smooches with the goal of making something for their challenge. I ended up making 4 cards.

I used an image from Perpetual Bliss to pair with the sentiment from Wine Samplers and drew in my own scribbles to indicate the ringing alarm. Time for wine!

It's graduation season, so I have started on some graduation cards. I just love this sentiment, from PTI Get Lost.

CAS(E) this Sketch #371
Funny thing about this card....I was so excited to see that I had a mini panda with a diploma that would be perfect for a graduation card. After cutting it out, I thought it seemed strange that the panda would have 2 diplomas...then why did the diplomas have leaves? Yes, it took me a while to realize that the panda was holding 2 pieces of bamboo. But, I am still going to use this as a graduation card.
Just Us Girls #535: Mini

And, finally, the last card of the day...

You have been busy! I had a slow mojo week last week. Hopefully I'll get some of your crafty energy this week!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so brilliant. The inked stenciled panels are so pretty. I LOVE the bookshelf images - I'm going to have to grab some of those! The wine o'clock with the alarm clock cracked me up and I'm always partial to a scoter card given how many years I spent riding around on one!
Thanks for sharing your lovely stenciled Mother's Day card with us at Addicted to CAS, Joyce.
ReplyDeleteYou have been very busy! What a wonderful collection of cards. What a great card you've entered for Addicted to CAS. Love the bonus of being able to create two cards with the stenciled panel.
